Abstract

We characterize the power series n = 0 c n z n with the geometric property that, for sufficiently many points z , | z | = 1 , a circle C ( z ) contains infinitely many partial sums. We show that n = 0 c n z n is a rational function of special type; more precisely, there are t and n 0 , such that, the sequence c n e int , n n 0 , is periodic. This result answers in the affirmative a question of J.-P. Kahane and furnishes stronger versions of the main results of [Katsoprinakis, Arkiv for Matematik]. We are led to consider special families of circles C ( z ) with center g ( z ) and investigate the possibility for a polynomial R ( z ) to satisfy R ( z ) C ( z ) for infinitely many z , | z | = 1 . These polynomials are related to the partial sums of the Taylor expansion of the center function g ( z ) . We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of infinitely many such polynomials R ( z ) .
